Once, when berrying, I met with a cat with young kittens in the woods, quite wild, and they all, like their mother, had their backs up and were fiercely spitting at me. A few years before I lived in the woods there was what was called a "winged cat" in one of the farm-houses in Lincoln nearest the pond, Mr. Gilian Baker's. They gave me a pair of her "wings," which I keep still.
'Now you will come, and we'll go boating and berrying, and all the rest of it again, won't we? The blue eyes were full of fun and feeling, too, I fancied, as I blushingly retired behind my locks and gave the promise. But I never went, and never saw my little lover any more, for in a few weeks he was dead of a fever, brought on by too much study, and so ended the sad history of my fourth boy.
There she rested long enough for me to see what she held in her beak, and then disappeared in the silent way she had come. In a moment she returned; for it was not for herself she was berrying, but for some speckled-breasted beauty shyly hiding in the alder thicket below.
In a hollow there the wilds seemed more compact about them; the sense of solitude disappeared; it was just as if one of their berrying rambles in the woods behind Maam had been prolonged a little farther than usual Lazily they reclined upon the heather, soft and billowy to their arms; the kind air fanned them, a melody breathed from the rippling shore.
"We'll have to stan' it," said she. "Mis' Field don't want her windows all broke in. That's dreadful sharp." Thunder shook the house like an explosion. The women looked at each other with awed faces. "Where is your mother? Why don't she come in here?" Mrs. Babcock asked excitedly of Lois returning from the bedroom. "She's gone berrying," replied Lois, feebly. She sank into a chair.
He'll be at his father's berrying, that he will." "Nay!" cried Liza, without a prolonged accent of surprise; and, indeed, this fact had come upon her with so much unexpectedness that her curiosity was now actually as well as ostensibly aroused. "Yes," said Mr. Garth; "and there's those as knows where to lay hands on him this very day that there is."
He had a sincerity which, if somewhat startlingly uncouth, was always definitely compelling. His French itself was both uncouth and startling. I hardly think he was a dangerous bear. Had I been the French Government I should have let him go berrying, as a bear must and should, to his heart's content.
At each house along the way boys would call out to Harry, asking him about going fishing, or berrying, or some other sport, so that Bert felt a good time was in store for him, as the boys were about his own age and seemed so agreeable. "Nice fellows," Harry remarked by way of introducing Bert. "They seem so," Bert replied, cordially.
"He will have to eat breakfast somewhere; but perhaps he expects to take a late breakfast on the fish he has caught. Mother, Linnet and I are to be little girls, and go berrying." "Only be happy, children; that's all I want," returned Mrs. West, her voice breaking. While Marjorie fried the fish for breakfast her mother went to her chamber to kneel down and give thanks.
The first Jolly Little Sunbeams had only reached the Green Meadows and had not started to creep into the Green Forest, when he saw a big, dark form steal out of the Green Forest where it joins the Old Pasture. It moved very swiftly and silently, as if in a great hurry. Sammy knew who it was: it was Buster Bear, and he was going berrying. Sammy waited a little until he could see better.
